Description

I have created an account and opted to use my own GPG key. However, I use a Yubikey for GPG and it proved too difficult to set up. How can I switch to using a Keybase-managed key instead? So far the option seems to be to reset my account, but that takes 3 days!

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by tracing the account reset and key-selection flows mentioned in the issue, then determine whether switching key ownership without a reset is supported. Done means a user can move from an own GPG key to a Keybase-managed key without waiting three days.
